um "Joined TL.net Wednesday, 5th of May 2010" looks like you're new here so let me explain to you something. Ret is on another level. There's a good reason why way back when beta was starting up, the some of the top players were saying if Ret started SC2 seriously, he would be a force to be reckoned with.
I love Ret but even I think that comparing him with Jaedong and Flash is way too much.

Artosis and Tasteless also exaggerated about what a big deal it was that ret lost his third in the jungle basin matchup.. He traded his third and some mining time for like 5 zealots and a stalker.. it wasnt that big of a deal, he was never really behind.. especially considering that the protoss made two starports, a templar that wasnt used, etc etc. Don't expect ret to cruise so easily.
Did we watched the same game? The protoss put no early pressure on ret? He sniped a bunch of overlords and drones plus popped ret's third hatch as soon as it went up. If that's not early pressure I don't know what is.
i said "early"
is it really "early" once protoss has two stargates up, or once ret has his third up? no, it's midgame bud.
Early pressure is a lot less necessary when you 15 nex, as you can typically keep up economically.

Agreed, Ret only seriously started playing a few weeks ago and has arguably the best macro around right now. It has to be at least a little to do with genetics. I don't think he is out-practicing Koreans.

Just wanted to point out that your sig is eerily appropriate. :D

IdrA acts like a timid shut-in IRL, rages like a juvenile kid as loud-mouthed keyboard warrior.
Ret is someone who is NORMAL. He talks well, has a good sense of humor, engages in active dialogue.
I'm now officially a Ret fan.
I would say, "u mad bro?", but it's not even a question after reading that post. Although I find some of your choices in what you point out amusingly bad.
Why am I mad? I'm a fan of IdrA because of his distinct stubborn macro play and hype-building rage.
Doesn't mean he's not a kid acting like that as an individual.
You a mad fanboy?
I'm sure Ret would be happy to have someone like you as a fan. He and Idra get along fine - don't be so judgmental.

Let me explain something to you here. Not everyone made an account to post on TLnet the minute they joined. You should stop dissing people for the date they joined or the number of posts they made. That 5000 posts of yours would not mean jack shit if all you do is going around dissing people for being new. I am sure lots of people were laughing at all that ass kissing Artosis was doing. I merely pointed out the truth and I guess that little fanboy in you can't stand it. Go home and cry to your mom.

a hair much, but then again he did nearly win courage after only playing zvz for like a month.
